Coventry City forward Brandon Thomas-Asante has been handed a late call-up to the Black Stars team for the upcoming World Cup Qualifiers. 

Thomas-Asante replaces Inaki Williams who drops out of the squad due to an injury he suffered in Athletic Club’s game against Mallorca on Saturday. 

In a great of form for the Championship side, Thomas-Asante was left out of the initial team to face Central African Republic and Comoros in the final phase of the 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers. 

However, an injury to the Spain-based striker means Thomas-Asante gets to rejoin the squad for the first time since the Unity Cup in May. 

He has already arrived in camp ahead of the team’s second training on Monday, October 4. 

The Coventry man has rediscovered his form in front of goal with five goals and three assists in 9 Championship games this season. 

He was twice on the scoresheet in the win over Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday, October 4. 

Thomas-Asante has one goal in four appearances for the senior national team of Ghana. 

The Black Stars face CAR on Wednesday before taking on Comoros at the Accra Sports Stadium on Sunday, October 12.
